To investigate the clinical and histopathologic features of testicular seminoma with syncytoplasmic trophoblastic components.Using light microscopic staining, we analyzed the clinical and histopathologic characteristics, diagnosis, differential diagnosis and prognosis of 3 cases of testicular seminoma with syncytoplasmic trophoblastic components, and reviewed the relevant literature.All the 3 cases were typical seminoma with syncytiotrophoblastic giant cells. Immunohistochemistry showed strong expressions of CD117 OCT-4, SALL4 and PLAP in diffuse tumor cells, and that of hCG in syncytiotrophoblastic cells. Continuous monitoring and consultation exhibited normal levels of serum β-hCG in all the cases after postoperative chemotherapy.Testicular seminoma with syncytiotrophoblastic giant cells and increased serum β-hCG is a rare subtype, which occurs mostly in young people, sensitive to chemotherapy postoperatively and with a relatively good prognosis. |
